Solution

The correct option is A (i), (ii) and (iii) only have: zero dipole moment
In CO2,CCl4 and C6Cl6, all polar bonds possess the same value of dipole moment, thus overall dipole moment of the molecule is found to be zero.
Whereas in case of CO, the dipole moment is equal to the dipole moment of CO bond.
